California Rolls

California Rolls are one of JT’s favourite sushi, so when we invited Brian (our nephew) for dinner this Sunday, I made a bunch. Unfortunately, he canceled due to a cold, so we had sushi for appi’s, and lunch the next day!

California Rolls

4 sheets of Nori (dried seaweed paper)

1 cup uncooked sushi rice

2 tbsp rice vinegar

6 sea legs

4 slices of cucumber

enough Avocado for 4 sushi rolls

1/4 cup of white and black sesame seeds, toasted

2 tsp Wasabi (green mustard)

Cook rice as per directions and allow to cool. Add the rice vinegar and stir well.

Cut cucumber into 1/2″ thick slices the length of the sushi paper.

Cut sea legs in half lengthwise.

Peel avocado and slice into 1/2″ thick slices, dip into lime juice so it won’t brown.

Using a generous strip of plastic wrap, place one sushi paper on the wrap.
